Case study: Penguin-flavoured poultry

Case study: Penguin-flavoured poultry

Most of the noise surrounding the success of the open source Linux server software in business comes from the anti-Microsoft brigade cheering on the sidelines. However, since Linux is basically an open source version of Unix, logic would suggest the first converts to the software with the penguin logo might not come from the Microsoft Windows camp.

Review: UNIX Privilege Manager

Review: UNIX Privilege Manager

In the Unix world, anyone who knows the root password has access to the root account. This gives them complete control, as there is no way to delegate specific privileges. The systems admin has to decide to control everything, or allow other users root access to perform specific tasks allocated to them. One way leads to overwork, the other to security compromise.
